There are arguably less players now than there were when masters didn't drop from everything everywhere. Adept 3's are baseline sufficient for all existing degrees of raiding.
Adept 3's are far cheaper and useful for anything. The added sentimental value of masters comes mostly from the better players having them, not from the need to have them. Because nobody needs to have them.

I like the no drop idea. I actually like that Idea for everything. If you made Adept 3 spells the top tier attainable spell you'd then just see harvested rares skyrocket in value. farmers would just move from gangbanging solo mobs to gangbanging nodes.
Honestly, I find it hard to believe if SoE wanted to get rid of the plat seller / farmer problem they couldn't do it.
I get the imprerssion they give a token effort to handle the problem but aren't willing to give a full fledged attempt to purge these guys from the game.
I guess it all comes down to how much money do plat sellers actually cost them and is it worth spending resources to handle the problem.
